Movie Recap of the Week

No Reservations♣ Last Wednesday, me and my colleagues planned to watch Apat Dapat but we end up watching No Reservations – a story of two chefs cooking their love recipe. Nice team up, lame story.

♦ Yesterday was a holiday in observance of the end of Ramadan. A friend invited me for dinner and sleep over. We rented cd’s and she chose two suspense films, The Messengers and Saw III.

The MessengerThe Messengers is a story of “paranormal phenomena” resulting to the discovery of a murder mystery of the last occupants of the house where “the messenger” moved in. I just hated it when I easily predicted every scenes — the only thing that was horrifying with the movie.

Saw IIIGoosebumps did not easily get me during the first horror movie, but I was so engrossed with the second, Saw III. This one made me cower and gave me chill down my spine. The story, as well as the game created by the sadist Jigsaw and his puppet, was intriguing. But that did not make me stick to go on with the movie because I just could not bear the sight of deformed body being tortured to pieces. My friend and I ended the night to sleep in her room, but I insisted, I went home in spite of her protests to keep me in.

I think the two horror films triggered my hyperacidity that night I went home.

♥ Tonight, after days of planning with my friends/workmates, we finally made it to laugh our hearts out. The four of us made it a perfect time to watch “Apat Dapat, Dapat Apat: Friends 4 lyf and death“, a very hilarious, funny and corny comedy… hahaha!!!

    I love most of the Saw movies, but I really didn’t like how the third one was set up. The way Jigsaw planned his game was TOO perfect. He expected tthis guy to shoot this girl at a certain time, etc etc. That doesn’t really work in real life, unless you got you REALLY lucky.

    You’re right. It was way too perfect! What is fiction, anyway…
